And Facebook has written a transpiler to C++, then a new language based on PHP, and a VM for it. Seems like quite an investment.

To over-simplify, Google probably just tunes the Hotspot JVM.

Uh. Google reimplemented all of java for Android. And then invented a whole new language to replace their internal use of C.

And now, of course, dart and flutter, on a new OS to replace the Linux underpinnings.
